We have a 4m bell tent for when its just me and my three children or very short stays with hubby and children, it is rather cosy but we manage ok with a fold out inflateable sofabed so we have some space during the day. I would love a 5m as I don't think they weight that much more or take up more space (ours is a 350 gsm I believe whereas the soulpads are 285 gsm) but pennies don't allow it.

I went from non camper to glamper in just months! August I was basic camping with the kids in a poly tent, no electric or even cooking utensils (one night camp with take out), September we had a sofabed and fairy lights then October this:

The only thing to think about with a bell tent is you will need a seperate space to cook, I wouldn't risk cooking in such a space with children about even if in the middle of the tent as others have suggested in older posts.
